"John Hooker"

"John Hooker" is appearing in the current media coverage of the mislaid fossils. Is my edit to Joseph Dalton Hooker correct? Please vet my edit.--Wetman (talk) 01:31, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

19th reference

The 19th reference for this article has a DOI link to a corrigendum to the article, not to the article (or abstract) itself.--Quisqualis (talk) 21:34, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Notability and relevence

@DGtal: Other then using the name and a vague concept of fungal Mycelium, what makes the ST Discovery reference both notable and relevant to this article on the fossil genus? Mention of a taxon and use in media is not, in and of itself considered notable by wiki standards, if there is no third party coverage of that specific usage and its relevance to the taxon. Please do not re-add the pop culture section until discussion happens here.@Apokryltaros: also.--Kev min § 19:58, 8 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Electron microscopy of a fossil

Have mineral particles gotten a lot smaller since the last time I looked? How is any detail that tiny preserved in a fossil?
